Fixed dental prosthesis in pure 3D translucent zirconia

Among the latest material options for making a fixed prosthesis for a full arch implant, total implant or protocol prosthesis, we now have an innovative technique full of advantages: 3D pure translucent zirconia. Zirconia is currently the most modern material for both full and partial dental implant prostheses. It is also the most suitable material for dental crowns on single implants or fixed prostheses.

Zirconia dentures combine beauty and strength

Pure zirconia is also known as cubic zirconia, translucent zirconia, monolithic zirconia and black zirconia. It is currently considered the most modern and resistant material for making dental crowns.

Dental prostheses made from this material are fixed onto dental implants previously placed in the upper or lower jaw.

In order to offer patients the most modern treatments, the ImplArt dental clinic has once again innovated by pioneering the best European technology (Austria) to manufacture 3D zirconia dental prostheses in its own laboratory.

Its modern manufacturing allows treatment to be carried out using 100% computerized techniques, with complete digital planning of the case. This means more comfortable treatment for the patient, much more predictable, and above all, faster.

Translucent Zirconia
The translucent zirconia protocol prosthesis is completely white and contains no metal inside. As a result, the colors and shapes are more beautiful and natural.

Planning 3D zirconia implant/prosthesis treatment

For a complete treatment with dental implants, there must first be an extensive conversation between the dental surgeon and the patient. The definition of the total treatment takes place in 3 stages:

  • 1- Firstly: Planning the surgical and prosthetic aspects of the all-tooth or partial implant case. First of all, the patient’s needs are studied, with a clinical assessment and radiological examinations, so that the case can be planned precisely before it is carried out.
  • 2- Secondly: Performing the surgery to install the dental implants. At this point, a temporary transition prosthesis for the full arch should also be installed.
  • 3- Thirdly: Preparation of the final dental prosthesis. Once the implants have healed, the long-awaited making of the complete prosthesis begins, according to the material chosen by the patient at the start of their treatment.

Zirconia dental prosthesis without gums. In some cases it is possible to make a zirconia dental prosthesis without the pink gum layer. In an acrylic dental protocol this would not be possible.

Not all protocol prostheses are the same and made of acrylic!

The choice of implant prosthesis material

Nowadays, you can choose from a variety of materials for fixed prostheses on implants (dental protocols). In the past, there were only metal-ceramics (metal structure and porcelain exterior) and acrylic (resin), made by hand.

Today, ImplArt is able to offer patients options with extreme resistance and superior aesthetics, such as computer-engineered translucent zirconia. In this sense, each type of prosthetic material can have an impact on the patient’s treatment in terms of price, preparation time and the final aesthetics of the total implant.

Therefore, in this article, we will explain the most modern model of fixed prosthesis on implants: the computerized translucent zirconia prosthesis, as well as its advantages and characteristics.

What is 3D dental zirconia? Zirconia is a white material that has the strength of a metal

Types of zirconia prosthesis for dental protocols

Today there are three types of dental zirconia to better perform protocol prostheses on implants (fixed dental prostheses), namely :

  • 1. milky whitezirconia structure (lower volume), together with applied porcelain overlay (higher volume)
  • 2. 3Dtranslucent zirconia prosthesis (larger volume), i.e. with a small application of porcelain on the outside of the teeth (smaller volume)
  • 3.3D monolithic pure zirconia prosthesis (full volume) with make-up, so no additional porcelain applied

The aesthetics of aesthetic zirconia fixed prostheses are unbeatable. Notice how translucent the material is and how beautiful and natural it looks.

What does the 3D translucent pure zirconia implant prosthesis look like?

In this type of zirconia prosthesis, there is only a small porcelain overlay on the structural part of the prosthesis. In short, the entire final process of making the monolithic zirconia prosthesis is done by computer programs and robotic machines( Digital Dentistry).

Therefore, we are sure that the fittings will be perfect, the anatomy will be that of natural teeth, and the colors will be realistic.

zirconia and translucency prosthesis
Dental zirconia protocol. Note that there is a small layer of translucent porcelain on the outside of the tooth to give it more shine, better color and more translucency. The rest of the prosthesis is solid and made of pure zirconia that has been tinted to match the natural color of the tooth and gums. The holes will be closed after the fixed prosthesis has been installed.

Advantages of the 3D zirconia protocol prosthesis

In contrast to metal as a structure, the main advantages of translucent zirconia are its biocompatibility, excellent aesthetics and extreme resistance. Zirconia, with the white structural part of the dental prosthesis, undeniably enhances the natural cosmetic characteristics of porcelain.

In fact, dental zirconia is exceptionally strong and durable as a base. So much so that the use of small portions of porcelain over this translucent zirconia structure provides complementary aesthetics for the complete implant.

In addition, zirconia is a super biocompatible and anti-allergenic material and is also used in white dental implant posts.

zirconia dental prosthesis internal structure
The structure of the zirconia dental prosthesis is white and, at this stage, not yet colored or shiny. In the next phase of the prosthetic work in our dental laboratory, the piece will come to life with the pigmentation of teeth and gums. The final colors depend on the consensus between the person’s taste and the dentist’s opinion. However, you can virtually choose any color from the available range. The most commonly used shades for porcelain zirconia teeth are B1, A1, BL4, A2, B2. For the gums, we try to follow the color of the patient’s natural gums, with the most common colors being STG4, STG5 and STG8.

Superior aesthetics of 3DZirconia

Dental zirconia can be custom-made in such a way that it resembles the enamel and gum tissues, thus optimizing the aesthetic result.

Translucent dental zirconia is undeniably the best material for fixed prostheses on implants, as it offers translucency, naturalness and strength as a result.

First of all, it should be noted that the zirconia protocol prosthesis makes no noise when chewed, is not heavy, nor does it damage dental implants, and certainly not opposing teeth.

Translucent dental zirconia is a material that above all does not change color, does not stain and therefore does not wear out with use.

How are 3D translucent zirconia dentures made?

The ImplArt Clinic has all the infrastructure to make your zirconia fixed prosthesis in its own laboratory. Here’s how it works: a zirconia dental prosthesis is manufactured using computerized processes, starting with the milling of a solid block of zirconia.

Above all, because it is a CAD-CAM (computerized) job, your dental project is stored in our laboratory, so the original project can be printed again quickly, should the need arise.

Dental prostheses: versions with or without artificial gum are possible (but it depends on an examination to check feasibility). 1-Without gum layer; 2-Light gum layer; 3-With gum layer.

Maintenance of fixed 3D translucent zirconia dental implants

First and foremost, zirconia is extremely resistant and is certainly the strongest material for dental use. As such, its resistance is superior to porcelain and, of course, resin.

Maintenance for a zirconia prosthesis involves a visit to the dentist every 6 months for prophylaxis, in order to monitor oral health in the same way as recommended for all other patients.

The risk of the prosthesis fracturing is, above all, very rare, due to a characteristic of the material.

With regard to the color and shape of the teeth, these remain unchanged over time, making the material an excellent choice for its durability and, above all, long-term aesthetics.

It is always important to remember that, once treatment is complete, you should visit your dentist every 6 months for prophylaxis and to monitor the results of your treatment.

Fixed prosthesis on teeth can be replaced by crowns and implants

Fixed dental prostheses on teeth are a solution for providing function and aesthetics to the smile of a person who has lost or fractured teeth. This type of prosthesis is also known as a bridge.

Fixed prosthesis on teeth to replace missing teeth

Sometimes it is installed glued over remaining neighboring teeth or attached by staples. Although this is a great solution for filling gaps, it can cause some inconvenience over time.

One of them is that this type of prosthesis is unable to stop bone resorption at the site, especially under the suspended element.

This is because the body progressively absorbs bone volume at the site of a tooth extraction without immediate replacement. In this respect, rapid dental implantation would be more appropriate.

The prosthesis doesn’t follow this movement and the tendency is for an unsightly gap to appear between it and the receding bone tissue.

This can leave the prosthesis out of place over time and the wearer may experience discomfort when chewing. Staples, on the other hand, can hurt the oral mucosa and damage the aesthetics of the smile if the metal is visible.

Another drawback of fixed prostheses on teeth is that they require wear and tear on the supporting teeth, which can make them more fragile and susceptible to diseases such as tooth decay and infiltration of canals or gum inflammation.

Replacing bridges over teeth with bridges over implants or single crowns therefore has many benefits, the main one being that it stops bone resorption. When the implant pins are installed in the bone, they function as tooth roots and the body understands that this bone is still useful.

Dental implants have other advantages:

  • Preserves the integrity of neighboring teeth (which do not need to be worn down);
  • Protects bone and gum tissue against periodontal disease and infiltration;
  • It is more resistant and durable;
  • It restores masticatory function and gives you the confidence to speak and smile;
  • Extremely aesthetic result. The prosthetic crown mimics the color, texture and shape of neighboring teeth. There is the aesthetic advantage of having no metal points from the staples.
  • When crowns are individualized, they make it possible to floss (note that the fixed prosthesis on teeth is one piece and it is not possible to floss between the teeth).

Dental implants offer several other advantages in addition to stopping bone resorption. They provide stability and security when chewing and speaking, as well as helping to preserve facial bone structure. In addition, single crowns or bridges on implants offer a more natural aesthetic, promoting a more harmonious smile.

Changing your dentures

If you have been wearing a fixed prosthesis on your teeth for many years and would like to replace it with a dental implant, you will need to undergo a professional assessment that will identify whether there is advanced bone loss or bruxism.

In some cases, bone grafting can be a solution for reconstructing lost volume. Find out more about bone grafting.

Ideally, people should try to have this replaced as soon as possible to avoid bone loss, but in cases where the gums are not healthy, the procedure may be contraindicated.

Prior periodontal treatment would then be necessary. It is important to remember that, once treatment has been completed, you should visit the dentist every 6 months for prophylaxis and to monitor the results of the treatment.

Digital radiology center at the ImplArt Clinic

For your convenience, the ImplArt Dental Clinic has a digital radiology center for carrying out radiological examinations, which are essential for diagnosis and planning/monitoring various dental treatments. Diagnostic examinations certainly play a key role in the planning of an excellent dental treatment by an implant dentist. They are indispensable for planning bone grafting, periodontal grafting, dental implants, total impl ants and protocol prostheses.

In this sense, digital radiology at the ImplArt Clinic is linked to the One Stop Solution concept, where patients can carry out everything from diagnostic examinations to complete dental treatment within the complete structure of the Dental Clinic.

Digital radiographs and examinations at the ImplArt clinic help with rapid diagnosis and treatment planning

The ImplArt Clinic’s digital radiology center facilitates diagnosis and speeds up the start of treatment, since patients don’t have to travel to another address to have their tests carried out.

The ImplArt radiology center is equipped with a state-of-the-art digital x-ray machine (manufactured by Dabi Atlante), which enables digital panoramic x-rays and computed tomography, both with real-time image results.

With these high-precision tests, the diagnosis is made quickly and reliably. They also support treatment planning, avoiding wasted time, unnecessary procedures and possible surgical accidents.

Digital radiography is a way of capturing images by emitting x-rays, but with digital sensors rather than traditional film.

Advantages of Digital Radiology

There are many advantages to using digital radiography:

  • Patient exposure to radiation is much lower in digital radiology compared to traditional film.
  • The patient doesn’t have to repeat the examination until the image is good.
  • Diagnoses are faster and more accurate, as the image captured in digital radiology has excellent resolution and the dentist can view it directly on the computer screen (no need to wait for it to be developed).
  • It allows small details such as tooth or root fractures to be analyzed. The dentist can enlarge the image when necessary.
  • It allows interaction between dentist and patient, since with the digital image on the computer screen, it is possible to better discuss the diagnosis and treatment planning.
  • It can be filed in the patient’s chart and opened by any member of the dental team involved in planning and treatment.
  • The test is sustainable, as there is no need to print film or use toxic chemicals to develop it.

Digital radiology – Panoramic radiography

A radiological examination used to visualize oral structures. Here are some situations in which it is very useful in dentistry:

Translucent zirconia

Computerized Tomography (CT-scan)

Thishigh-precision radiological examination, available at the ImplArt Clinic’s Digital Radiology Center, is designed to visualize bone structures. In dentistry, it is very useful because the three-dimensional image makes it possible to analyze teeth, bones, joints, occlusion, soft tissues, nerve pathways, etc. Here are some of the main uses of CT in dentistry.

  • Diagnosing periodontal diseases, even at an early stage.
  • Measuring bone volume for planning dental implant surgery. Knowing the exact measurements of the bone tissue is an extremely important factor when planning dental implant surgery, because in this way it is possible to choose implants with dimensions suited to the needs of each patient and also to respect the limits of the tissues in order to avoid affecting sensitive structures such as nerves.
  • CT assists in what we call computer-guided surgery, a technique that makes surgery precise and less invasive, and therefore with the expectation of a quicker and smoother recovery.
  • Monitoring the implant healing process (osseointegration).
  • Identify possible problems with the implant, especially peri-implantitis (infection around the implant that can lead to mobility or falling out).
  • Identify fractures or defects in the maxilla or mandible that affect the health and stability of teeth or implants.

If you have any questions, please contact us or come and visit us. We at the ImplArt Dental Clinic will be happy to help you.

Odontophobia – The fear of the dentist can ruin your life

Odontophobia is a term that defines a person who is afraid of the dentist, i.e. the patient may experience symptoms ranging from mild anxiety to panic, dizziness and fainting. Other patients experience nausea or motion sickness during dental treatment.

It is important for patients to know that the ImplArt Clinic team provides humanized care, in other words, respecting the limits of each patient, so that they can feel welcome. This applies to simple procedures such as prophylaxis and restorations, root canal treatment and even surgical procedures such as bone grafting or dental implants.

The dentist for phobics can help you take care of your oral health

This condition often leads to people neglecting their oral health and putting off important care at an early stage.

This leads to problems such as cavities, plaque buildup, gingivitis, periodontal disease, root canal problems, fractures, dental malocclusion, tooth mobility and dental aesthetics, among others. Many of these problems, if not treated in time, can lead to tooth loss.

We at ImplArt Odontologia understand that this is a serious issue. We know that many patients who seek dental care carry expectations and anxieties, and some even have bad previous experiences.

That’s why we strive to provide patients with a calm and transparent service, especially those with odontophobia.

Sedation procedure helps with odontophobia

In moderate cases of odontophobia, dental procedures can be carried out under intravenous sedation, in which the patient remains in a state of deep drowsiness throughout the procedure.

Sedation is completely safe, as it is carried out by a specialist doctor who first interviews the patient and requests complementary tests (if appropriate), and monitors the patient’s functions while all the dental procedures take place.

When all the procedures are finished, the doctor stops the sedation and the patient wakes up instantly without any difficulty. In extreme cases of odontophobia, dental procedures may be performed under general anesthesia in a hospital setting.

The ImplArt Clinic performs implants at the Oswaldo Cruz Hospital in São Paulo.

Day Clinic ImplArt – Frequently asked questions

On this page, we’ve put together a collection of frequently asked questions from patients about fast treatments with Day Clinic ImplArt (Dental Spa), both for dental implants and other treatments. If your question hasn’t been answered, please comment below or send us an e-mail.

What should I bring to my appointment?

Bring all the X-rays and tests you have so that we can follow the progress of your previous treatments. If you don’t have any tests, we’ll request the ones we deem necessary. Digital panoramic X-rays and CT scans allow us to observe general oral conditions. If you prefer, these tests can be carried out at ImplArt (at a separate cost).

Can I make an appointment and start treatment the same day?

In most cases we can start on the same day, but it’s always best to attend a planning appointment first. We will certainly have to carry out a detailed planning of your case and schedule specific appointments to organize the progress of your treatment.

Is it possible to finish the treatment in a single day?

Only if your treatment is very simple and we have time available. Many dental treatments are complex and, even with all the technology and our own laboratory, it will take a few days to plan and complete the treatment. You will certainly know how long your complete treatment will take once we have analyzed the clinical consultation and your exams.

How many days will my treatment last?

Treatment time will depend on the degree of complexity of your case, the number of teeth involved, the techniques selected and the materials that will be used.

Who will carry out my treatment?

We have a complete team of professionals in all areas of dentistry. In this way, we will assign a specialist to each area in order to carry out the maximum number of procedures in the shortest time, with the highest possible quality.

Can I have my treatment under sedation?

In some cases it is possible to perform intravenous sedation, which can last up to 4 hours. To find out whether you can undergo sedation, you will need a medical assessment.

Is there a hotel near the clinic?

The region is well served by accommodation of different categories. Read an exclusive article on hotel recommendations near the clinic. We can help you choose if necessary.

Points of reference are: Oswaldo Cruz Hospital, Beneficência Portuguesa Hospital, Avenida Paulista (80mts), Shopping Paulista (opposite), Vergueiro Subway (blue line), Paraíso Subway (blue line), Brigadeiro Subway (green line).

Which treatments are quickest to perform at the ImplArt Day Clinic?

These are technically simple treatments, such as

day clinic implart

Which treatments may require more than one day?

Which treatments cannot be carried out at the ImplArt Day Clinic?

It can take several weeks or even months to complete some types of treatment. Contact us to find out what can be done in your case.

I live in another state and am planning a trip to São Paulo for dental treatment. How can I get an estimate in advance? In person or by sending some tests (X-rays, photos, etc.)?

We have a structure that allows treatments to be resolved in a shorter time than normal, in line with our Day Clinic philosophy. If you are interested in a more detailed study of your case, it would be very helpful if you could send us a panoramic x-ray and photos of your arch.

We can therefore guarantee that the current procedures are completely painless. Unfortunately, we can’t offer you a quote without first holding a face-to-face consultation and analyzing all your tests. If you have any further questions about Day Clinic ImplArt or anything else, then please contact us.

Planning for dental implants – how is it done by the dentist

Improve your quality of life and self-esteem with dental implants

Dental implants must be planned by a specialist in order to achieve the desired success. Initially, when studying dental implants, examinations are carried out in order to:

Implantes Dentários Mais Modernos

What resources can dentists use to plan implants?

It is important to explain that the dentist uses photos, examinations and clinical assessment in an integrated manner for precise dental implant planning.

  1. Initial Photos: Photos of the mouth and smile at the start of treatment capture the oral anatomy and help to visualize the general condition of the mouth, including the position of adjacent teeth and facial aesthetics.
  2. Radiographic examinations: Panoramic radiographs and CT scans also offer a three-dimensional view, allowing bone quality to be assessed, anatomical structures to be identified and pathologies to be detected.
  3. Clinical Evaluation: Detailed intraoral examinations reveal more in-depth periodontal conditions, the presence of infections and specific characteristics of the oral tissue, providing crucial information for implant success.
  4. Precise measurements: Using specific measurement software, the professional assesses the thickness and height of the available bone, thus ensuring the proper selection of the implant.
  5. Virtual Planning: Specialized software allows for virtual simulations, making it easier to choose the ideal position for the implants, considering aesthetics and function.

The combination of these elements also allows the dentist to carry out personalized planning, increasing the predictability and success of the dental implant procedure.

Planning is important for successful dental implant treatment

Dental implants are performed in the dentist’s office under local anesthesia, with care and attention from the implant dentist. Even those who are afraid of the dentist can have bone implants without any problem. Titanium implants are placed inside the bone and you have to wait three to six months for osseointeraction (calcification of the implant in the bone).

Once healing has taken place, the patient can wear a temporary prosthesis which allows them to better maintain their daily activities and also prevents the process of bone resorption (when the area is left without teeth for a long time, it can lose bone volume). Also during this period, the dentist makes the molds for the fixed dental prosthesis that will be placed after the implants have osseointegrated.

Temporary prosthesis for dental implants – planning

Despite the initial discomfort due to the implants and also the temporary prosthesis, the patient should wear it most of the time to facilitate adaptation. At first, the patient may feel nauseous, produce more saliva than usual and their pronunciation may also be strange. Of course, any discomfort in the meantime is temporary and must be overcome in order to achieve the best possible result.

However, in some cases, the dentist may opt to carry out the immediate loading procedure, in which the temporary prosthesis is fixed immediately after the implants are placed. This takes a maximum of 72 hours and, like all treatments, must be planned in advance to avoid problems in the future.

Finally, a permanent prosthesis will be fixed a few months after the implants have healed and the person will experience a significant improvement in chewing, quality of life and the aesthetics of their smile. The materials for the permanent prosthesis can also be chosen by the patient together with the dentist.

There are several options for implant materials, especially in the case of full arches, the so-called protocol prosthesis. Contact our clinic or make an appointment if you have any questions about the treatment, average price or techniques. We’ll be happy to help you!

Laser teeth whitening – Day Clinic

Laser teeth whitening is a treatment often used in our Dayclinic cases because it greatly improves the appearance of the teeth and is quick to perform. Teeth whitening can be used in conjunction with other aesthetic treatments such as cosmetic dental lenses. It can also be used in rehabilitative treatments with dental crowns and even dental implants, where fixed dental prostheses will be required, and the tone of the smile can be modified as a whole at this point.

Over time, some of our habits can leave our teeth yellowed or stained. Ingesting highly pigmented foods or drinks, such as coffee, wine, beet, açaí, among others, can stain teeth.

Smoking is also one of the enemies of white teeth, as nicotine also stains teeth. In addition, poor brushing – which would be a better way of removing food pigments from the teeth – can also lead to the accumulation of plaque on the teeth, which makes them look yellow.

A beautiful, uniform smile makes up dental aesthetics, while yellowed and stained teeth can affect a person’s self-esteem.

A naturally whiter smile, like the ones seen on celebrities, is a common desire. The best part is that this dream is possible, thanks to the laser teeth whitening procedure, which is certainly a great ally for dental aesthetics.

How does laser teeth whitening work?

ImplArt Odontologia uses the most modern laser whitening techniques safely and efficiently. The best whitening is done with the combination of hydrogen peroxide-based gel and the laser light that activates the gel.

The procedure safely and effectively removes pigments and stains from tooth enamel and dentin. Some people need more than one session and this will be determined after an assessment of each case.

Indications for whitening

Laser teeth whitening treatment is suitable for most people who are bothered by yellow or stained teeth.

There are even techniques for children over the age of 10. The indication is made after a thorough assessment of the general condition of the patient’s mouth (teeth, gums, tongue and mucous membranes) by the ImplArt professional.

Dental implants – Frequently asked questions

Find out the most frequently asked questions about prostheses on implants

Are implants aesthetically pleasing?

In short, it depends a lot on the system used and the local conditions. Aesthetics have improved a lot in recent years. But it’s important to bear in mind that, however good the implant and the professional, the first is still a prosthesis on an implant, i.e. the replacement of natural teeth with artificial ones.

Therefore, expectations regarding implants are common, but can usually be followed by a certain amount of frustration. In many cases, the aesthetic solution is quite acceptable. Fortunately, there have been many advances, not only in the materials used to make prostheses, but also in techniques.

Nowadays we can build prostheses that look more and more like natural teeth. However, the main objective must always be functional. The implant is far superior to other prosthetic procedures, and in the absence of teeth, it’s the best we can do.

How long will I be out of implant prostheses?

In simpler cases, some kind of temporary implant prosthesis is provided for the patient to use immediately after surgery. In the case of the totally edentulous, the period is limited to a few hours to a few days after the first surgery. In the second stage, once the implants have healed, the patient is not left without the prosthesis. In some cases, the immediate loading technique can be used.

Can I eat anything after the prostheses have been fitted? What if I fracture a tooth in the implant-supported prosthesis, is the implant lost?

Not everything can be eaten, but the restrictions are not too severe. Certain foods can even fracture natural teeth. In short, a diet with a minimum of care is sufficient to preserve the teeth of implant-supported prostheses. One positive fact is that repairing fractured teeth is relatively easy.

What happens if the implant (post) becomes mobile after the prosthesis (tooth) has been placed?

All mobility is progressive and indicates that the implant has been lost. Each case is assessed individually and, in principle, the implant can almost always be replaced. This event brings frustration not only for the patient, but also for the dentist. In fact, what happens is an increase in treatment time and, above all, the need to be patient in order to complete it.

I have a full upper prosthesis. I would like to know about the possibility of placing an overdenture without a palate. How many implants? What are the costs?

The overdenture without a palate is a good option because it makes the wearer feel more comfortable. To do this, at least four implants need to be placed. Another option is a fixed prosthesis on implants. This would require four to six implants.

The cost of this type of treatment is variable and it depends on tests to predict the availability of bone in the area. In other words, prices can only be given after a face-to-face consultation and an assessment of the particularities of each case.

I would like to know about the possibility of replacing two removable prostheses with staples with fixed prostheses without staples or implants. I would also like to eliminate the visualization of the staples in my smile.

A treatment like this appears to be of little complexity and can be completed in a short time, according to our Day Clinic philosophy. We always suggest that you also have your teeth whitened to make your whole smile whiter and more aesthetically pleasing.

I have two fixed bridges (one on each side) on the top and I have two implants started (the pins have been placed). I’d like to complete the implants and replace all my teeth with nice white ones, because mine are yellow and the bridges are old with the metal showing. I would also like to know how many days it would take to do a treatment.

A treatment like this is considered to be of minor complexity and can be completed in between 10 and 15 days, according to our Day Clinic and Dental Spa philosophy. The colors of the teeth will be chosen jointly between the dental team and the patient. We always suggest that teeth whitening is also carried out so that the whole smile becomes whiter and more aesthetically pleasing.

I wear lower and upper dentures. Can I get my teeth back? Can you provide information on costs?

Nowadays it is possible to restore teeth even for people who have been wearing dentures for many years. There are many alternatives, especially dental implants. To get an estimate on the price of dental implants, you’ll need a face-to-face consultation and more detailed examinations, which can easily be carried out at our clinic.

Should I go back to the dentist after having my teeth fitted?

At least one clinical radiographic check-up is required every year. It is also the patient’s obligation to attend these check-ups. Appointments are important to identify any problems in time for them to be reversed. They are also used to carry out professional cleaning of the prosthesis, to assess whether the user is performing daily oral hygiene properly, among other aspects that only a professional dentist can identify.

Will chewing ability improve after implants?

Above all, implants have much better functional results than dentures and removable prostheses. Patients who have been wearing dentures for a long time and have implants fitted feel the difference is very significant. The fixed implant prosthesis does not move and the patient certainly feels more comfortable and secure when chewing, speaking and smiling.

I’ve heard that porcelain is the best material for teeth. If I want an implant-supported prosthesis with porcelain teeth, would that be possible?

In most cases it is possible to make a prosthesis on an implant with porcelain teeth. Porcelain teeth are undoubtedly the best material for making a dental prosthesis. Today there are porcelain teeth with or without internal metal that offer different aesthetic results, with metal-free porcelain being more aesthetic than prostheses containing metal.
